Reckz was a male Falleen crimelord and one of two founders of Black Nova. His partner was Klic Niuv and it eventually became owned by Pelis Helrote. Reckz and Klic watched as Black Sun fell, another tragedy created by the Jedi. They vowed to find a way to get even, but from the shadows. They created Black Nova and were joined by Pelis, who then began to control the organization. He suggested they ship supplies to the Anti-Yuuzhan Vong movement.
